It was an older parish, in the downtown area. At the appointed hour, we parked on the street and walked up to thee front door facing the sidewalk. It was locked, tighter than a tick! <br /><br />We drove around the block and spotted a parking lot in back with lots of cars, so we pulled in there. Sure enough, there was a back door, with people coming and going.<br /><br />After the service, I mentioned the locked front door to some of the men of the parish. They said, &quot;Oh, everyone knows to come to the back door.&quot; It had never dawned on them that not &quot;everyone&quot; knew.<br /><br />Fr.D+<br />Continuing Anglican PriestAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
